Daily December 19: Being grateful

In one of our Church magazines it talked about how we should focus on giving and not getting this season and on how God has given us so much. We have so much to be grateful for. It suggested taking a "Gratitude Challenge." Each member of my family has decided to do this, and I wanted to share. It said to write 100 things you are thankful for. To help you is suggested these. . .

1. Write 10 physical abilities you are grateful for
2. Write 10 material possessions you are grateful for
3. Write 10 living people you are grateful for
4. Write 10 deceased people you are grateful for
5. Write 10 things about nature you are grateful for
6. Write 10 tings about today you are grateful for
7. Write 10 places on earth you are grateful for
8. Write 10 modern inventions you are grateful for
9. Write 10 foods you are grateful for
10. Write 10 things about the gospel you are grateful for

And as we write this we realize this barely touches all that we have to be grateful for. You can read the article here. Take the Gratitude Challenge!
